Strategic Partnerships and Research Commercialisation

Colleges and services Research Development and Support Strategic Partnerships and Research Commercialisation

The strategic partnerships and research commercialisation teams work together to develop research at Flinders, in the initial stage with external partners, and in developing and guiding our research into commercialisation options.

Strategic Partnerships

We support the development of strategic partnerships and collaborations with industry, government and other research organisations.

The Strategic Partnerships team identify opportunities for research income and leverage external opportunities to increase research outputs. We promote the University’s research capabilities and bring researchers together for collaborative proposals and projects.

We can help you with:

  • Partnership Directors in Health and Defence
  • Providing a focus and key point of contact for internal and external stakeholders
  • Developing pathways for research investment
  • Supporting the management of critical relationships within industry sectors and government agencies

Senior research development coordinators, supported by a research development assistant, work across the Colleges, with industry and government to

  • Support the development of major project and research programs, such as Centre of Excellence and Cooperative Research Centre bids
  • Identify opportunities and facilitate tender applications
  • Coordinate research promotion at external events

Research Commercialisation including intellectual property

We convert new ideas, innovations and basic research into valuable and useful commercial products.

The Research Commercialisation team works closely with researchers to assess invention potential and perform due diligence. We engage with industry to determine if they will adopt the invention, or not, and under what circumstances. We seek funding to further develop the technology and complete proof of concept demonstrations, and pursue commercialisation deals for the technology to be used commercially.

We can help you with:

  • IP due diligence
  • Patent searching
  • Market validation
  • Regulatory pathway
  • Commercial strategy
  • Path to market
  • Funding availability and applications
  • Private investment
  • Patent attorneys
  • Strategic partnership and investment
  • Internal / external lawyers
  • New company registration and launch
  • Directorships
  • Contracting and agreements
  • Commercial business development
